    1. Short description The "µQMCV" module is a compact up to 4 voice MIDI-to-CV interface with additional CV out- puts for modulation and pitch bend, as well as two MIDI clock outputs for RUN and 16th clock. The range of notes is 8 octaves. The MIDI interface is multi-mode capable, which means that the individual voices can be used separately on different MIDI channels in defined modes in groups.

    2.3 MIDI connections The module has two MIDI sockets (TRS-B standard mini jacks) INPUT and THRU. Connect the MIDI input to the MIDI output of your keyboard / controller or computer. The data received at MIDI-IN is forwarded via MIDI-THRU. A corresponding commercially available adapter (MIDI-DIN to Mini TRS- B) or a 3.5mm (1/8 inch) stereo jack cable is used for the MIDI connection.

    3. Handling 3.1 Quad MIDI-to-CV Interface The module is preset as a four-way MIDI-to-CV interface on midi channel 1. The two controllers MODULATION and PITCHBEND also work on this midi channel. Send notes from a connected MIDI keyboard over an 8 octave range of note numbers 12-108. The module can output the GATE and CV voltages for up to 4 notes at the same time.
  • Page 7: Multimode

    3.2 MULTIMODE The four voices of the module (each with GATE / NOTE / VELOCITY outputs) can also be used separately in other defined groups. To do this, the voices must be assigned to other midi chan- nels. There are 5 modes that can be set with the LEARN function (or via SYSEX): quad polyphon (all same midi channel) ->...
  • Page 8: Modulation / Pitchbend Outputs

    3.3 MODULATION / PITCHBEND CV outputs The module has two additional CV outputs: The CV output MODULATION reacts to MODWHEEL (Control Change No. 1) and supplies a voltage of 0 .. + 5V The CV output PITCHBEND reacts to the pitch bend wheel and supplies a voltage of 0 .. + 2v. After switching on, the voltage is set to + 1v (middle position of the pitch bend wheel).

    Type 2: set midi channel and control change number from the MODULATION output Type 3: set midi channel from the PITCHBEND output You can download some ready-made SYSEX files from the FLAME website. You can also create your own SYSEX files (for example with the freeware program MIDI-OX).
